Study Highlights Importance of Regular Lung Cancer Screenings for Higher Risk Patients
Researchers have found that patients who tested negative for lung cancer (LC) in an LDCT (low-dose helical computed tomography) screening, but later went on to develop lung cancer within the following two years, had poorer outcomes than patients who initially had a non-cancerous positive screen test result.

Radiologists Need to Become Central Members of Cancer Teams
Radiologists need to become established as central members of cancer teams because of an expected increase in the importance of imaging for cancer between the years 2016 and 2026. Radiologists are responsible for early identification of toxicity using precision oncology imaging, and need to interpret these findings, including the relationship of the findings with tumor response, and the effect on metastasectomy.
